The   Editor's   Introductory 


I  have  only  been  able  to  put  in  this  book  the  information  which  has 
been  sent  me,  or  as  I  have  gleaned  it  from  the  Herald  of  Oospel  Liberty, 
the  Christian  Sun  and  other  sources.  A  few^  conferences  are  not  reported 
because  I  could  get  no  response  to  repeated  requests ;  but  I  feel  that  the 
time  is  coming  vv^hen  all  the  conferences  will  be  in.  It  takes  time  and 
patience  to  work  up  a  statistical  report ;  and  some  of  the  conference 
clerks  have  expressed  the  opinion  that  their  conference  is  so  small  and, 
seemingly,  doing  so  little  that  it  is  not  worth  while  to  report  at  all. 

Ah,  how  human  we  are!  We  somehow  get  it  into  our  beads  that 
only  "big"'  things  count ;  we  forget  that  God  does  not  look  at  things 
through  human  eyes.  Every  minister,  every  church,  every  conference 
doing  work  for  the  Master  is  "big"  in  His  sight ;  and  it  is  frequently 
the  case  that  the  so-called  "little"  minister,  church  and  conference  does 
the  most  lasting  good.  Take  heart,  "little"  minister,  church  or  conference, 
for  your  work  is  "big"  in  the  estimation  of  One  who  knows  how  to  put  the 
right  estimation  on  things,  if  you  are  doing  things  in  His  way  for  Him. 

Many  of  our  ministers  have  gone  to  "the  home  over  there"  since  the 
last  Annual  was  published;  some  of  them  in  the  full  strength  of  man- 
hood, and  some  who  have  been  waiting  quietly  for  release  for  some  years. 
Some  wives  and  widows  of  our  ministers,  too,  have  been  called  to  "higher 
ground ;"  what  a  vacancy  their  going  makes !  How  much  of  the  success 
of  the  minister  depends  upon  his  wife !  I  have  heard  many  a  minister 
say,  "What  I  have  been  able  to  do  for  Christ,  has  been  made  possible, 
largely,  by  the  life  and  influence  of  my  wife."  Noble  words,  and  happy 
the  man  who  can,  and  will,  truthfully  say  them.  Some  deacons,  too, 
have  fallen  by  the  wayside,  and  they  will  be  missed  in  the  churches  where 
their  lots  were  cast. 

I  desire  to  heartily  thank  all  who  have,  in  any  way,  contributed  to 
make  this  little  volume  what  it  is ;  and  I  trust  as  it  goes  into  the  homes 
of  our  people  that  it  will  answer  some  questions  asked ;  give  some  in- 
formation sought  for,  and  cause  all  to  feel  that  there  is  still  a  tremendous 
work  for  the  people  called  "Christians"  to  do  "in  His  name."

THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL  5 

Living  Our  Principles 

RY   HEY.  O.  B.  WHITAKEU,  1).   D.. 

President    I'mon   Cliri><tian    ColIefK.   Mcroiii,   Ind. 

Christ,  our  only  head ;  Christian,  our  name ;  the  Bible,  our  only  rule  of  faith 
and.  practice;  individual  interpretation,  the  inalienable  right  of  all;  Christian  character, 
our  test  of  fellowship;  and  the  union  of  the  followers  of  Christ  in  universal  Christian 
fellowship  our  plea.  What  an  honor  to  live  such  principles!  What  an  honor  to  be  a 
member  of  a  body  whose  head  is  not  merely  a  president,  a  king,  an  emperor  or  a  pope, 
but  whose  licad  is  Christ  and  to  know  that  God  Himself  "gave  him  to  be  the  head  over 
all  things  unto  the  church!"'  What  an  honor  to  bear  worthily  the  name  Christian.  What 
an  honor  to  hold  as  our  rule  of  faith  and  practice  the  only  ortlwdox  creed  in  all  the 
world,  the  only  creed  that  has  ever  been  written  by  "holy  men  of  God  (who)  spake  as 
they  were  moved  by  the  Holy  Ghost,"  the  Bible!  What  an  honor  to  feel  that  God  has 
authorized  us  to  "search  the  Scriptures,"  that  He  has  welcomed  us  into  the  very 
bosom  of  His  word,  that  there  stands  between  us  and  the  Bible  no  church  or  committee 
or  council,  no  preacher,  priest  or  pope,  but  that  individual  interpretation  was  vouch- 
safed to  every  disciple  when  Christ  Himself  said,  "one  is  your  Master,  even  Christ,  and 
ALi,  YK  AKE  BPETHKEN !"  What  au  houor  to  possess  the  Christian  character  that  would 
admit  to  such  a  fellowship,  and  what  an  honor  to  be  a  member  of  a  body  that  posses- 
ses as  its  consrituting  quality  the  highest  and  noblest  and  best  of  all  earthly  attainments 
— Christian  character.  What  an  honor  to  stand  under  Christ  and  on  the  Bible  and 
feel  within  ourselves  a  beating,  throbbing,  palpitating  heart  of  love  that  would  reach 
out  to  all  the  followers  of  Christ  with  a  plea  for  the  union  of  all  that  love  the  Lord. 
Living  our  principles  means  all  this, — and  more. 

Our  forefathers  settled  the  timber  covered  lands  of  Ohio  and  Indiana  and  Illi- 
nois for  the  purpose  of  living  the  principles  of  agriculture ;  but  they  were  living  those 
principles  not  less  when  they  were  felling  the  soil-cumbering  forests,  or  grubbing  the 
soil-sapping  roots,  or  destroying  the  grain-choking  weeds,  than  when  they  were  planting 
the  seeds  of  corn  or  wheat,  or  reaping  the  ripened  harvest. 

Washington  was  lirintj  our  principles  of  liberty  and  e(iuality  of  man  not  less  when  he 
was  crossing  the  dangerous  Delaware,  or  leading  his  battling  troops  in  the  face  of  the 
thimdering  British  cannon  at  the  Brandywine  or  Germantown,  than  when  he  signed  the 
Declaration  of  Independence  or  assisted     in  drafting  our  Constitution. 

When  God  directed  Moses  to  lead  the  "children  of  Abraham"  into  the  land  "which 
he  should  after  receive  for  an  inheritance,"  it  was  for  the  purpose  of  living  the  prin- 
ciples of  the  Mosaic  institution  and  the  laws  of  God.  But  think  you  the  children  of 
Israel  were  living  those  principles  less  as  with  weapons  for  battle  they  followed  Joshua 
in  the  wars  against  the  heathen  and  idolatrous  nations  which  God  had  commanded  them 
to  destroy  than  as  they  followed  the  same  gi'eat  leader  peacefully  through  the  parted 
waters  of  the  river  Jordan?  Or  think  you  that  Joshua  was  living  those  principles 
less  as  he  led  the  armies  of  Israel  against  idolatrous  king  after  king  until  thirty-one 
crowned  heads  had  fallen  beneath  his  mighty  sword  than  were  the  priests  that  were 
l)eacefully  offering  sacrifices  upon  the  altars  of  burnt  offerings? 

Were  not  the  children  of  Israel  living  their  principles  when  they  rebuilt  the  walls 
of  Jerusalem,  of  whom  it  is  written,  "Every  one  with  one  of  his  hands  wrought  in  the 
work,  and  with  the  other  held  a  weapon?"  Think  you  he  was  living  his  principles  less 
with  the  hand  that  held  the  weapon  than  with  the  one  that  wrought  in  the  work? 

Was  Jesus  living  His  jirinclples  less  when  He  "went  into  the  temple  of  God  and 
cast  out  them  that  sold  and  bought  in  the  temple,"  than  when  He  wept  in  sympathy  with 


6  THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL 

the  sisters  of  Lazarus?  Or  was  He  not  living  His  principles  as  trrty  when  He  preached 
in  Jerusalem  against  the  sects  of  His  day,  denouncing  their  leaders  as  "scribes  and 
Pharisees,"  "fools,"  "blind  guides,"  "serpents,"  "generations  of  vipers,"  as  when  He 
preached  to  His  disciples  the  Sermon  on  the  Mount? 

But  illustrations  are  endless.  The  conclusion  is  irresistible.  It  is  this :  To  live  a 
principle  of  truth  means  to  oppose  the  corresponding  error, — and  this  means  war  <isf 
long  as  that  error  exists.  To  plant  the  seeds  of  truth  successfully  means  to  destroy 
the  weeds  of  corresponding  untruth.  To  espouse  righteousness  means  to  oppose  iniquity. 
To  "love  the  good,"  means  to  "hate  the  evil," — and  the  best  evidence  of  the  former  is 
the  manifestation  of  the  latter.  Therefore  to  live  our  principles  of  truth  means  to 
oppose   the   evils   against  which   they   stand. 

Moreover,  to  live  our  principles  means  to  preach  our  principles,  and  to  preach 
them  where  they  are  needed, — among  our  own  people,  among  them  that  do  not  know 
them  and  in  the  very  camp  of  the  enemy. 

The  history  of  the  past  has  shown  that  without  exception  the  path  of  peace  winds 
through  the  rugged  rocks  of  tribulation,  and  that  the  only  road  to  truth  leads  over  the 
hill   of  opposition. 

He  is  ignorant  of  the  history  of  the  Christian  Church  that  does  not  know  that  its 
periods  of  greatest  growth,  of  greatest  power,  of  greatest  influence,  of  greatest  pros- 
perity, have  been  the  periods  of  greatest  agitation,  discussion,  and  war  against  the 
evils  against  which  our  principles  declare;  and  the  periods  of  least  growth,  of  stand- 
still, of  back-sliding,  have  been  the  periods  of  least  agitation  and  contention — the 
periods  when  our  men  have  had  their  eyes  on  their  commissary  more  than  on  their 
captain. 

The  very  nature  of  our  principles  makes  them  a  declaration  of  war,  for  each  of 
them  embodies  a  truth  against  an  existing  and  a  prevailing  untruth.  War— not  against 
the  followers  of  Christ,  but  in  their  behalf;  not  against  the  faith  of  our  brethren,  but 
in  defense  of  liberty  of  conscience  and  faith ;  not  even  against  sectarians,  but  against 
sectarianism. 

My  brethren,  let  us  carry  forward  our  glorious  flag  of  Christian  Fellowship, 
painted  upon  the  silken  fabric  of  God's  eternal  Woed,  and  supported  upon  the  state  of 
CHRISTIAN  Character,— let  us  carry  it  forward  through  the  very  midst  of  the  plains 
of  sectarianism,  and  plant  it  upon  the  mountain  tops  of  everlasting  truth ; — and  God 
will  give  us  the  victory.  Thus  shall  we  be  LIVING    OUR   PRINCIPLES. 


Man  awakens  for  himself  an  interest,  a  suspense,  a  hope,  almost  a  confidence  that 
sitmething  ini]iortant  is  about  to  happen,  that  something  is  in  preparation,  that  man  is  not 
an  fiid.  but  merely  a  way,  an  interest,  a  bridge,  a  great  promise. — Nietzsche. 


Never  have  I  seen  Thee  so  clearly  as  when  I  was  breaking  bread  to  the  hungry ;  never 
have  I  loved  Thee  so  dearly  as  when  I  soothed  a  brother's  pain.  I  sought  the  friendless 
children,  and  I  discovered  P.etlilehem  ;  I  visited  the  humble  homes  .'ind  T  found  Nazareth. 
— George  Matheson. 


By  emphasizing  the  heroic  side  of  Christianity  we  shall  win  and  keep  our  children. 
The  fidelity  to  brave  and  loyal  ancestors  is  a  religion  in  itself — a  religion  that  is  work- 
ing wonders  in  the  world  to-day.  The  faith  and  courage  of  our  fathers  did  much  to  per- 
suade their  sons. — Rohertson  Nicoll. 


THI",     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL 

MY  OLD  INDIANA  HOME 

The  fairest  of  o,  lifetime  is  i'Jtildhood's  ruddy  glow 

And  the  heauties  of  the  orehard  ichere  tJie  foicering  asters  grow; 

The  molets  of  the  hillside  and  the  pansies  by  the  toay, 

Are  tJic  locelirst  of  the  Sljyringfime  when  youthful  life  is  gay. 

The  memories  of  the  meadow  and  the  songsters  of  the  wood , 

Just  make  the  child-life  pleasant  as  of  sweetest  babyhood ; 

And  thus  our  minds  meander  to  the  fairest  spots  ive  know. 

To  the  Old  Indiana  Homestead,  where  the  flowering  asters  groiv. 

The  bluebells  of  the  hillside  and  the  purple  of  the  vale. 
And  the  songsters  of  the  treetops  add  cheer  unto  tJie  tale; 
While  the  rivers  by  the  roadside  and  the  cedars  on  the  hill, 
Are  pleasures  of  the  ^^pringtime  that  yoiitliful  liearts  may  fill. 
Thr  modest  little  mayfiower'and  its  maiden  buttercup, 
And  the  little  men  and  tromen  that  fill  the  forest  up. 
To  cheer  the  dogwood  blossoms  and  the  redbud  up  above, 
Just  fill  the  tcoods  with  gladness  and  the  joyousness  of  love. 

But  let  us  now  meande)^  to  the  fields  so  rich  and  green, 

Where  the  clover  red  and  white-topped,  tcith  blushing  pink,  is 

seen; 
The  purple  of  the  lilac  and  the  peach  and  apple  red 
That  forms  such,  splendid  network  tcitJi  the  leaves  and  vines  o'er- 

head. 
And  plums  and  pears  and  cherries  and  fruits  of  every  clime 
Entwined  by  the  morning  glory  and  the  four-o'clock  of  time; 
The  halm,  the  crah,  and  the  buckeye,  and  the  native  trees  that  grov) 
In  my  Old  Indiuna  Homestead,  and  my  native  Ohio.

Thankfulness  and  Thoughtfulness 

MY   KEY.   \Y.  D.   SAMUEL, 
PivsUlcnt  American  'Christian  Convention. 

Our  English  word  tlmnkful  is  allied  from  its  Anglo-Saxon  derivation  to  our  word 
tliinkful.  There  cnii  be  no  thankfulness  without  thoughtfulness,  mindfulness  of  bless- 
ings received.  We  are  apt  to  lose  sight  of  the  blessings  of  life,  they  flow  in  such  an 
uninterrupted  stfeani  that  we  come  to  think  of  them  as  a  matter  of  course.  If  some- 
where away  down  among  the  earth's  strata,  among  the  leaves  and  ferns  of  past  ages, 
as  you  Sduglif.  yoTi  should  find  your  name  spelled  out  in  the  rock  of  coal,  how  astonished 
you  would  he!  Yet  there  is  a  place  where  your  name  was  written  before  there  was  a 
rem  leaf.  (Jod  wrote  out  your  name  on  the  scroll  of  life  and  began  laying  up  blessings 
for  you.  lie  has  stored  the  earth,  interlaced  it  with  rich  metallic  veins,  filled  it  with 
limestone,  coal  and  gas,  that  it  might  be  ready  for  us  when  we  came  into  being.  Nature, 
in  her  every  district,  is  offering  thanks  to  God,  from  the  heavens  which  "declai-e  the 
glory  of  God"  and  the  firmament  which  "showeth  his  handiwork,"  down  to  the  dew'- 
di-oi(  which  sparkles  in  the  colors  of  the  rainbow.  Every  student  of  nature  becomes 
surprised  that  beauty  is  born  out  of  such  strange  elements,  and  that  there  should  be 
such  harmony  of  forces.  Yet  these  are  but  the  results  of  God's  thoughtfulness  of  His 
children. 

Here  we  are  just  at  the  dawning  of  nineteen  hundred  and  ten.  Are  there  not  a 
million  things  for  which  we  should  be  grateful  to  Him  who  plans  for  us?  Nineteen 
liuudred  and  nine  has  been  a  year  of  manifold  blessings  to  us  in  our  nation,  our  homes, 
our  churches  and  our  Convention  work.  And  with  a  heart  overflowing  with  gratitude 
to  God  I  want  to  send  greetings  to  every  member  of  the  American  Christian  Convention, 
asking  you  to  join  with  me  in  praises  to  our  good  Father  for  the  prosperity  that  has 
come  to  us. 

It  is  true  our  horizon  has  been  clouded  occasionally  and  our  hearts  saddened  by  the 
"black  camel"  kneeling  at  the  doors  of  some  of  our  brotherhood  and  carrying  away  some 
of  our  strongest  characters.  I  cannot  refer  to  all ;  may  I  refer  briefly  to  our  lamented 
brother.  Dr.  McWhinney.  We  shall  miss  him  at  our  next  Quadrennial  Convention.  His 
death  was  a  great'  loss  to  us.  The  pen  has  dropped  from  his  facile  fingers,  his  great 
brain  has  ceased  to  send  to  us  his  beautiful  messages  of  love.  But  even  in  this  our  loss 
we  have  much  to  be  thankful  for.  We  should  never  tire  thanking  God  for  the  great  soul 
of  Dr.  McWhinney.  For  his  beautiful  spirit  and  strong  character.  Let  us  emulate  his 
virtues  and  be  true  to  the  cause  which  he  loved  to  his  dying  day.  He  loved  the  Chris- 
(ian  Church.  Her  principles  were  dear  to  him  because  they  are  as  broad  as  the  mind 
of   Jesus. 

Then  we  should  be  thankful  for  the  work  of  those  who  still  survive  and  are  doing 
heroic  things  for  our  beloved  Church.  Men  who  are  putting  their  life  into  the  work  of 
the  Church  notwithstanding  much  unjust  and  unkind  criticism.  No  man  is  perfect,  we  ail 
make  mistakes,  but  no  amount  of  persuasion  could  make  me  believe  that  our  dear 
biethren  who  are  carrying  the  burdens  of  our  denominational  work  purposely  make 
mistakes.  They  are  true  men,  sacrificing  men,  clean  men,  broad-minded  men.  Thanli 
God  for  them. 

OUR  DEPABTMENTAL  WOKK 

We  should  he  thankful  for  the  good  work  being  done  along  all  lines  of  our  work. 
I  wish  to  mention  first  of  all  our  mission  work.     There  is  much  heroic  work  being  done 


12  THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL 

by  tlii>  department,  both  upon  the  part  of  the  Board  and  our  missionaries  in  the  field. 
A  b.'autiful  letter  has  just  come  to  me,  written  for  our  Ladies'  Missionary  Society,  from 
Rev.  T.  E.  White  of  Porto  Rico.  I  had  the  pleasure  of  reading  it  to  the  society  re- 
cently. It  stirred  our  hearts.  Though  there  might  have  been  just  cause  for  complaint 
because  of  the  arduous  labors  of  the  missionaries,  yet  not  a  word  came  from  his  pen. 
What  heroism!  I  wish  other  societies  might  read  a  personal  letter  from  these  noble 
spirits.  The  same  is  true  of  both  Home  and  Foreign  mission  workers ;  they  are  sacrificing 
men  and  women. 

Then  our  Board  is  doing  all  they  possibly  can  to  make  ends  meet.  They  show  a 
degree  of  financial  ability  in  handling  the  work  committed  to  them.  They  have  no  desire 
to  squander  our  mea.ns  but  husband  our  resources  the  best  they  can.  Before  complaining 
any,  put  yourself  in  their  place.  We  should  l)e  thankful  for  their  heroic  efforts  to  pro- 
mote the  Kingdom. 

OUR   COLLEGES. 

Truly  we  have  much  to  be  thankful  for  in  our  colleges.  Never  in  our  history  has 
l)ic"tter  work  been  done.  Yea.  I  l)elieve  our  colleges  are  doing  the  best  work  iu  their 
history.  They  are  better  equipped  than  ever  before.  They  have  professors  of  choice 
minds  and  characters.  I  speak  advisedly  when  I  say  that  the  faculties  of  the  various 
colleges  are  made  up  of  men  and  women  of  the  highest  Cliristian  character.  They  be- 
lieve the  Bible  to  be  God's  insjiired  Book,  and  so  teach  it.  Tht-refore  those  who  graduate 
from  these  institutions  of  learning  will  go  forth  into  the  world  to  exemplify  the  beauties 
of  our  religion.  Those  who  go  out  to  preach  will  prf^ach  the  piu'e  gosi)el,  the  new  birth 
and  the  necessity  of  holy  living. 

We  should  be  thankful  that  a  new  college  has  been  ;Hl(lcd  to  our  uuml)er.  I  mean 
the  college  at  Jireh,  Wyoming.  Thank  God  for  the  heroes  of  the  cross  who  man  this 
new  institution  of  learning.  We  know  who  they  are,  true  to  the  core,  enamored  with  the 
principles  of  the  Christians.  I  look  for  great  things  from  .lireh.  We  should  see  to  it 
that  they  are  not  handicapped  in  their  work.     Let  us  thank  <iod  and  take  courage. 

PUHLISHING     DEPARTMENT. 

We  should  be  thankful  for  our  publishing  department.  We  look  forward  to  the 
Quadrennial  Convention  of  1910  when  we  shall  go  up  with  the  report,  out  of  debt  and  a 
surplus  in  the  treasiu'y  for  church  extension  or  some  noble  work.  We  should  thank  God 
for  our  Sunday-school  literature,  second  to  none  in  the  land.  Then  we  should  thank  God 
in  one  full  tongued  chorus  for  the  best  religious  periodical  in  this  country.  I  mean  the 
Herald  of  Gospel  Liberty.  I  do  not  hesitate  to  say  that  it  is  second  to  none.  It  has 
never  been  better.  It  is.  religious  iu  the  truest  sense.  The  editor  is  to  be  congratulated 
on  sending  out  such  a  paper.  Brethren,  have  we  not  many  things  to  l»e  thankful  for? 
All  together,  let  us  say,  "No  more  criticism;"  but  with  hearts  filled  with  love  for  each 
other  say :     "Here  is  my  heart  and  hand  for  the  best  po.ssible  work  for  1010." 

We  shall  soon  meet  in  cmr  next  great  Convention.  I^t  us  begin  now  to  pray  God 
to  keep  us  from  harboring  anything  in  our  hearts  to  carry  to  that  Convention  that  might 
cause  a  jarring  note.  I  believe  wc  will.  Let  us  determine  that  1910  shall  be  our  best 
year  for  work.  I  believe  that  this  (piadrennium  has  been  an  educational  one.  and  tliat 
the  foundation   is  being  laid  for  the  best  work  the  Christians  have  ever  done. 

I  want  to  thank  one  and  all  for  all  the  kind,  good  things  you  have  said  to  me  and 
assure  you  that  I    sliall  lie  true  to   tlie  ti-ust  committed  to  me.

Other  interesting  figures  might  be  included,  as  follows:  There  are  four  Endeavor 
Sociflics  ill  .lajian  and  two  in  Porto  Rico;  the  Tokyo  Christian  Theological  School  now

14 


THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL 


within  a  year,  namely,  the  realization  that  the  forte  of  missionaries  in  Japan  is  far 
from  adequate,  and  there  is  a  general  call  for  reinforcements. 

It  will  be  remembered  that  October  1,  1908,  there  was  a  foreign  mission  deficit  of 
$4,074.15,  part  of  it  dating  back  two  years,  part  of  it  due  to  the  work  of  the  year  ending 
in  1908.  During  the  past  year  strict  economy  was  practiced,  and  the  same  amount  of 
work  was  carried  on  in  our  foreign  fields  and  in  our  administrative  department  (except 
that  not  quite  so  much  was  spent  in  travel  and  publicity),  while  the  increase  in 
the  deficit  was  only  $777.70.  That  was  partly  provided  for  by  money  that  was  pledged 
but  not  paid  before  October  1.  One  bill  was  paid  which  should  have  been  paid  the  year 
before,  which  increased  the  deficit  this  year  by  $500.  Had  it  been  paid  last  year,  the 
figures  would  have  been  in  our  favor  this  year.  The  total  expenses  of  our  foreign  mis- 
sion work  last  year  was  $14,023.68. 

But  little  has  been  done  toward  the  proposed  Indian  Mission,  which  was  started  by 


Rev.  C  P.  Garman's  Bible  Class,  Tokyo,  Japan 


the  New  Jersey  brethren.  Itev.  W.  F.  Jordan  is  agent  of  the  American  Bible  Society, 
in  Havana,  Cuba.  Meantime  considerable  interest  has  developed  in  mission  work  in 
British  Guiana  and  the  Barbadoes  Islands.  The  brotherhood  subscribed  money  to  send 
Rev.  S.  A.  Howell  to  South  America  to  organize  the  work  just  mentioned.  This  has 
entailed  some  resi)onsibility,  and  it  is  interesting  to  know  where  the  end  of  the  matter 
may  be. 

During  the  current  missionary  year  it  is  proposed  to  raise  the  sum  of  $18,000  for 
foreign  missions,  and  round  out  the  quadrennium  with  the  best  year  in  our  missionary 


THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL  15 

history.     Thus  far  the  mclications  are  very  good,  and  the  brethren  seem  to  be  awakening 
to  the  opportunity.     The  Foreign  Mission  Secretary  appeals  to  all  who  may  read  this 
to  plan  their  offerings  with  a  view  to  helping  raise  the  $18,000.     We  can  easily  do  it, 
with  the  co-operation  of  all  our  churches.

The  Woman's  Board  for  Foreign  Missions 

BY  KEY.  ELLEN   G.  GUSTIN,  President. 

The  Woman's  Board  for  Foreign  Missions,  in  connection  with  the  "Mission  Board," 
is  auxiliary  to  the  American  Christian  Convention.  The  charter  members  and  the 
Certificate  Life-members  now  number  one  hundred  and  four  members.  The  methods  of 
general  work  are  through  the  Conference  Woman's  Boards  which  are  auxiliary  to  it;  and 
the  Woman's  Missionary  Societies  of  the  churches,  which  are  auxiliary  to  the  Confer- 
ence Woman's  Boards.  No  Conference  boards  have  been  organized  in  the  past  year. 
Some  of  the  boards  have  few  auxiliaries,  others  have  made  excellent  progress  in  the 
work  of  forming  societies  and  educating  the  members  of  the  churches  upon  the  subject  of 
missions .  One  Conference  Board  has  fourteen  auxiliaries,  with  four  hundred  and  ninety- 
nine  members.  Nine  of  these  societies  have  Literature  and  Mite-Box  Secretaries,  six 
have  Mission  Study  Classes  and  nine  have  Cradle  Itolls  with  a  total  enrollment  of  one 
hundred  and  twenty-six.  It  has  also  "The  Living  Link"  which  raises  funds  outside  of 
the  general  work,  for  a  mission  in  Washington  and  a  special  work  in  Japan.  This 
board  has  thirty-one  Life-members,  and  has  raised  in  the  past  year  the  generous  amount 
of  .1^804.27. 

All  the  Board's  auxiliaries  have  not  accomplished  these  excellent  results,  but  from 
year  to  year  there  has  been  counnendable  growth  and  increasing  knowledge  of  the  neces- 
sity of  Christian  missions,  and  there  are  very  hopeful  signs  of  constantly  increasing 
earnestness  and  broadening  effort  anumg  the  noble  women  of  our  churches  as  the  yeax's 
go  on. 

The  larger  part  of  our  Conference  Woman's  Boards  are  organized  for  both  Home 
and   I'\>reign  niissiciis  and  the  funds  raised  are  divided  between   the  two  boards. 

The  aniomit  raised  by  tlie  Foreign  Board  in  the  past  year  is  over  .$2,000,  not  as 
large   as    in    some  years. 

The  total  amount  raised  and  used  by  the  Mission  I>oard.  for  tlic  woi-k  in  Japan,  is 
$32,333.39.

The  Neglected  Continent 

8oiitli  America  has  been  called  the  "neglected  continent,"  meaning  that  for  years 
I'rotestant  Christianity  lias  not  entered  the  open  doors  nor  done  its  duty  by  our  sister 
continent.     And  hence  religioiis  and  social  conditions  there  are  very  bad. 

A  missionary  work  started  among  the  colored  population  and  the  coolies  in  British 
(Juiana  now  interests  the  Christians,  and  a  brief  history  of  the  undertaking  will  not  be 
amiss. 

Several  years  ago  a  colored  brother  from  that  country  was  visiting  in  the  United 
States,  endeavoring  to  secure  funds  for  Christian  work  in  Guiana.  He  met  with  repulse 
and  rebuff  on  many  sides,  until  he  was  cordially  greeted  by  Rev.  S.  A.  Howell,  of 
Newport  New-,  and  given  a  hearing  in  Brother  Howell's  church.  Inquiry  followed  rela- 
tive to  the  Christians.  The  visiting  brother  was  given  information,  and  went  back  to 
South   America   much   impressed   with   what   he  had   seen   and   heard   while   at   Brother 

Howell's.  When  the  results  of  the  visit  to  the 
Cnited  States  were  rehearsed,  the  interested  people 
in  British  Guiana  decided  to  proceed  in  harmony 
with  the  principles  and  polity  of  our  denonnna- 
tiiin.  Considerable  literature  was  sent  to  them; 
and  a  Christian  Church  was  organized  in  (ieorge- 
town. 

Correspondence  was  rontinued  with  Kev.  Mi*. 
Howell,  with  Prof.  H.  E.  Long,  and  at  intervals 
with  the  Foreign  Mission  Secretary.  Many  appeals 
were  made  for  assistance  fremi  this  country  to 
organize  the  work  already  started  in  (ieorgetown 
and  the  Barbadoes  Islands,  and  to  ordain  one  or 
more  elclers,  that  the  nussion  might  have  govern- 
ment recognition.  A  colored  brother  named  .Toseph 
A.  .Joluison  was  leader  in  the  mission,  exhibiting 
much  ability,  and  he  had  gathered  quite  a  church 
and  body  i)f  assistants. 

Last  spring  Rev.  Mr.  Howell  was  impressed  with 
the  duty  of  going  to  British  Guiana.  He  made 
ai»peals  for  funds  through  the  Hcr(il<l  af  Compel 
Libert jh  which  appeal  was  heeded  by  the  brethren 
at  large,  and  sutHclent  money  was  quickly  sent  to 
the  [Mission  Treasurer.  Dr.  Bishop.  Forthwith 
.Mr.  Howell  and  Kev.  X.  K.  Higgs,  a  brother  minister,  went  to  Georgetown,  traveled  over 
the  field  on  both  sides  of  the  t)enierara  River,  met  the  workers  and  congregaticms, 
preached  in  churches  and  halls  and  on  the  street  corners  to  great  throngs  of  people. 
The  ministers  of  other  denominations  welcomed  them  cordially. 

.Vfter  seeing  the  field  and  work,  and  after  due  examination  of  I  be  men,  Mr.  Howell 
and  Mr.  Iligus  onlained  to  the  Christian  ministry  Joseph  A.  Johnson,  and  licensed  five 
persons,  namely,  (irithtli,  Layne,  Headley.  Phillii)S.  and  Eve.  Complete  organization  was 
effected  at  Georgetown,  with  stations  at  Canal  No.  1.  ten  nnles  from  Georgetown  on  the 
ot''e,-  side  of  tlie  Henierara.  at  Baggottstown,  and  at  Pleisauce  on  the  East  Coast.  Projier 
jirovision  \\:is  .ilso  made  for  the  church  in  Pinkett's  Land,  Barbadoes.  British  AVest  Indies, 
where  i{ev.  V..  .].  P.eiMiard  is  jirosecuting  a  successful  work.  The  whole  mission  in 
Hen.erara   was  or^ranized  as  the  Demerara  Christian  Conference,  and  the  mission   in   the 


Rev.   S.   A.  Howell 


18  THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUA!. 

Barbadoes  as  the  West  Indian  Cliristiau  Church.  At  that  time  there  was  a  membership 
in  Georgetown  of  135. 

A  young  man  from  British  Guiana  has  been  in  this  country  studying  and  worlving 
among  the  colored  people  in  the  south,  with  a  view  to  returning  as  a  minister  to  his 
own  people.  Quite  recently  he  has  been  ordained  to  the  Christian  ministry,  and  will  go 
back  to  Berbioe.  about  150  miles  from  Georgetown  to  inaugurate  and  build  up  a  church 
there,  thus  n.aking  three  main  churches  and  points  in  the  South  American  field — 
Georgetown,  Berbice.  and  Finkett's  Land  in  the  Barbadoes.  It  should  be  said  that  a 
second  church  is  about  to  be  organized  in  the  last  named  place. 

So  far  the  Mission  just  described  has  been  fostered  by  the  Afro-Union  Christian 
Church,  which  gave  Mr.  Howell  authority  to  proceed  and  organize. 

British  Guiana  has  about  302,000  people,  most  of  them  negroes,  East  Indian  coolies, 
and  half  breeds.  It  is  said  that  the  greater  part  of  the  colored  population  has  been 
won  to  a  nominal  Christianity  by  the  missionary  efforts  of  the  Anglican  Church.  The 
Church  of  Scotland  has  fifteen  ministers  there,  the  Wesleyan  ^lethodist  twenty  ministei's, 
while  the  Congregationalists,  Moravians  and  Catholics  have  churches,  the  latter  embrac- 
ing 24,0r!()  adherents.  Mr.  Howell  is  convinced  that  on  account  of  their  liberal  position 
and  polity  the  Christians  might  quickly  and  easily  build  up  a  large  church  in  British 
Guiana.  M.   T.    M. 


The  Home  Mission  Department 

REV.  O.  W.  POWERS,  D.  D., 
Home  Mission  Secretary  American  Christian  Convention. 

The  work  of  this  department  has  not  differed  very  much  from  that  of  the  two 
preceding  years.  About  thirty  workers,  in  as  many  fields,  have  made  reports  and  received 
as^sistance.  The  policy  has  been  one  of  concentration,  endeavoring  to  push  to  a  finish 
the  woi'k  in  hand,  rather  than  to  occupy  new  territory  or  inaugurate  new  ontoi-pi'i-ses. 
Five  churches  have  come  to  self-support  during  the  year.  Four  new  churches  have  been 
organized  by  our  workers,  besides  two  others  that  wer^  organized  with  the  understand- 
ing that  they  were  to  be  aided  this  year. 

A  much  better  showing,  on  paper  at  least,  could  be  made  if  we  would  jmsli  out  into 
tlie  inviting  frontier  fields.  Opportunities  in  the  Dakotas,  ^Montana,  Wyoming,  Wash 
ingron.  Idaho,  Colorado,  Oklahoma,  and  Western  Canada,  are  hard  to  resist.  But  to 
take  advantage  of  these  on  the  scale  that  they  demand,  with  our  limited  funds,  would  mean 
th'!  al)ando]nnent  of  important  work  already  under  way  in  older  [)ortions  of  our  fi 'Id, 
and  inabil;^v  to  render  assistance  to  imperilled  rhun-bes  in  important  centers,  wboi'> 
changing  conditions  make  such  aid  imperative.  It  is  apparent  that  much  more  of  thi? 
kind  of  work  is  op^^ning  before  us.  We  must  hold  our  ground  in  the  cities  of  the  East, 
and  do  wliat  we  can  in  the  rapidly  growing  towns  of  the  Suutli  and  the  Middb'  West. 
or    find   our  present   membership   in    these  sections  becoming  dcpleled    and   demoralized. 

In  pursuance  of  this  policy  thi-  department  is  giving  aid  to  the  churches  like  those 
in  Boston  and  Lynn,  Mass. ;  Manchester,  New  Hampshire :  Bangor,  ^Maine ;  Toronto,  Out. ; 
the  group  of  churches  in.  Norfolk,  Va. ;  a  number  in  Ohio  and  Indiana;  and  the  present 
year  will  aid  the  new  organizations  at  Olney  and  Louisville,  Illinois.  These  are  all  im- 
poi'tant,  not  only  in  themselves,  but  in  their  relation  to  other  churches.  To  neglect 
points  like  these  in  favor  of  frontier  territory,  would  be  simply  lo  change  our  base, 
without  entering  sections  any  more  needy  or  fruitful. 


THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL  19 

The  financial  importance  of  the  work  in  hand  is  manifest  by  the  fact  tliat  the 
property  owned  by  the  churches  now  receiving  aid  as  shown  by  the  quarterly  reports 
is  valued  at  over  two  hundred  thousand  dollars.  About  the  same  number  of  churches 
reported  two  years  ago  that  the  estimated  value  of  their  property  was  one  hundred  and 
twenty  thousand  dollars.  The  increase  is  partly  dxie  to  the  erection  of  new  buildings, 
and  partly  to  the  effort  of  the  department  to  prevent  loss  of  valuable  assets  held  by 
churches  that  have  become  weakened  by  misfortune  or  changed  conditions  in  the  coni- 
munities  where  they  are  located.  To  hold  the  ground  where  we  are  already  established. 
is  as  important  as  to  push  into  new   fields. 

At  the  same  time  we  ought  not  to  ignore  the  app  'al  of  our  own  people,  moving 
into  new  territory,  for  aid  in  giving  them  church  homes  and  Christian  surroundings. 
The  "Wyoming  Movement"  and  the  settlement  of  our  own  piMiple  in  South  Dakota. 
Montana  and  Oklahoma  have  opened  up  fields  which  we  sliould  oc<-upy  in  force,  and  at 
once. 

The  resources  of  the  deijartment  are  slowly  increasing.  But  the  average  for  the 
last  three  years  is  only  eight  thousand,  five  hundred  dollars.  Other  organizations  co- 
operating with  us  are  giving  over  two  thousand  dollars  a  year  Id  the  same  work.  But 
to  begin  to  do  effective  work  in  one-half  of  the  fields  open  to  us.  th  se  amounts  should 
be  doiibled.  At  the  same  time  doubling  our  resources  will  be  likely  to  more  than  quad- 
ruple the  work ;  for  increased  activity  on  the  part  of  the  Board  will  stimulate  the  co- 
operating organizations.  Indeed,  our  work  is  already  planned  to  that  end,  and  with 
gratifying  success  in  some  directions. 

The  work  of  the  Home  Mission  Secretary  consists  of  two  nuiin  departments :  that  of 
administration  and  supervision,  and  that  of  education  and  publicity.  It  has  been  the  aim 
of  the  department  to  gain  as  much  first-hand  information  concerning  our  mission  points 
as  possible,  even  making  personal  visitation  when  deemed  advisable.  The  lack  of  field 
secretaries  or  superintendents  is  a  serious  one,  and  the  secretary,  although  unable  to 
do  justice  to  so  large  a  field,  has  made  some  attempt  to  fill  the  place  of  such  workers. 

In  the  circulation  of  mission  literature,  visitation  of  conferences,  and  other  gatherings 
of  our  ministers  and  church  workers,  giving  missionary  sermons  and  addresses,  and 
promoting  a  more  intelligent  intei'est  in  our  enterprises,  there  is  a  field  suflicient  to  tax 
the  resources  of  a  well  organized  department.  In  this  direction  li  s  the  solution  of  our 
hardest  problem,  namely,  the  enlistment  of  new  workers,  and  the  enlargement  of  our 
financial  support.  Comparatively  but  few  of  our  people  have  been  active  in  the  pro- 
motion of  our  Home  iNIission  enterprise.  It  only  needs  a  reasonable  amount  of  co-opera- 
tion and  consecration  to  vastly  increase  our  effectiveness.  This  last  year  of  the  quad- 
rennium  should  be  the  best  of  all,  in  all  lines  of  our  denominational  activity,  but  in  no 
direction  is  there  more  insistent  need  of  enlargement,  than  in  this  one  of  Home  Missions.

We  can't  choose  happiness  either  for  ourselves  or  for  another;  we  can't  tell  where 
that  will  lie.  We  can  only  choose  whether  we  will  indulge  ourselves  in  the  present  mo- 
ment, or  whether  we  will  renounce  that  for  the  sake  of  obeying  the  divine  voice  within  us 
— -for  the  sake  of  being  true  to  all  the  motives  that  sanctify  our  lives.  I  know  this  belief 
is  hard  ;  it  has  slipped  away  from  me  again  and  again  :  but  I  have  felt  that  if  I  let  it  go 
forever,  I  should  have  no  light  through  the  darkness  of  this  life. — George  Eliot.

THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL 


The   Sunday-School  Department 

BY  KEV.  T.  S.  WEEKS, 
Sinidai/ScJiool  Secretary  for  the  American  Christian  Conr<'nti(t)i. 

We  are  beginning  our  Quadrennial  year.  We  shall  come  u[)  to  the  Convention  in 
Albany  next  October,  and  it  is  quite  important  that  we  be  able  to  make  a  full  report 
for  this  Department,  and  this  we  hope  to  do  if  you  do  your  part.  I  cannot  report  for 
the  larger  field  except  as  you  report  for  the  smaller  ones.  If  you  fail  to  report  your 
work  for  the  Quadrennium  by  so  much  the  American  Christian  Convention  fails  of  Its 
purpose. 

The  work  of  that  meeting  is  lo  hear  I'eporls  of  work  already  done  and  to  jilan  for 
work  which  ve  may  do.  We  have  nothing  to  report  except  what  you  have  done,  and 
the  wisest  plans  of  the  Convention  must  fail  except  as  they  are  carried  out  l)y  you  in 
the  local  churches  and  the  conferences  to  which  you  belong. 

There  seems  to  be  a  very  close  relation  between  good  work  and  good  reports,  for 
we  get  the  best  reports  from  the  fields  where  the  best  worlc  is  done.  This  is  not  foi* 
advertising,  but  for  information,  and  it  is  not  gratuitous  for  your  officers  are  entitled  to 
the  information,  and  furthermore,  the  life  of  the  organization  depends  upon  the  closeness 
of  contact  betAveen  the  parts.  If  we  are  not  in  touch  with  each  other  there  is  no  pos- 
sible communication  of  life  and  energy  and  interest,  and  the  severed  member  or  the 
whole  body  will  die.  Bear  in  mind  that  the  severed  member  will  suffer  first  and  most 
while  there  is  loss  to  all  concerned.  What  then  is  the  conclusion  of  the  whole  matter? 
It  is  this,  We  must  have  good  reports  this  year. 

Apropos  to  the  study  of  the  Gospel  of  Matthew  which  we  shall  take  up  in  the 
opening  year,  we  print  the  following  poem  by  Charles  Irvin  Jnnkin,  which  first  appeared 
in  the  Sxnday-^^chooJ  Times: 

The   Madonna 


On  that  holy  night  of  old  ; 
There  was  somid  of  angel   voi((>s. 
And  t])e  stars  looked  down    in   wonder. 
There  was  radiance  of  vision 

Of  a  glory  all  untold  ; 

From  the  soft  Judean  skies. 
On  the  tears  of  tender  gladness 

In  a   mother's  happy  eyes. 
As  the  hour  of  lonely  sorrow. 

With  its  terror,  passed  away 
In  the  vision  of  a  morrow 

And  the  dawning  of  the  Day. 


There  is  sound  of  human   voices  , 

In  a  world  that's  growing  (tld  ; 
There  is  lingering  yet  a  darkness. 

And  the  winds  are  bleak  and  cold  ; 
And  the  stars  look  down   in  sadness 

From  a  sky  yet  chill  and  gray, 
For  the  King  of  Love  is  waiting 

For  a  world  that  turns  away 
I'rom  the  little  son  of  Mary, 

Who  would  banish  grief  and  tears; 
And  the  hour  of  sorrow  lengthens. 

And  the  day  of  pain  and  fears. 


O  maiden  fair  of  Galilee  I 

O   woman   pure  and   sweet  I 
The  shepherds  and  the  Magi  bowed 

In  reverence  at  thy  feet. 
O   mother  of  the  Son   of  (Jod  ! 

O  woman  ever  blest  1 
Within   the  shelter  of  thine  arms 

The  King  found  love  and   rest. 


O  maidens  fair  !     O  maidens  true  I 

O  women   pure  and  sweet ! 
The  noble  and  the  peasant  bow 

In  reverence  at  your  feet. 
O  mothers  of  the  sons  of  men  I 

O  woman  on  the  throne ! 
By  love,  by  love,  and  mothcrhooil. 

The  King  shall  find   Ilis  own  I 


THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL  21 

Many  of  our  readers  will  be  interested  to  know  soiuetliiiif;  of  the  history  of  the 
hegiunings  of  Sunday-school  work  in  this  country,  hence  we  give  the  following  as  r^ 
ported  by  W.  C.  I'earce  at  the  Convention  in  Toronto  in  I'.tOo.  For  the  following  facts 
we  are  indebted  largely  to  Dr.  Henry  Clay  Truniliull.  in  his  "Yale  Lectures  on  the 
Sunday-School." 

"For  the  credit  of  introducing  the  modern  Sunday-school  into  the  United  States, 
there  are  many  claimants.  It  would  seem  that  in  several  idaces.  on  this  side  of  the 
<!cean,  a  Sunday-school  which  was  started  within  a  few  years  after  Raikes'  beginning 
in  Gloucester,  was  continued  for  a  time  and  then  given  uji.  without  leaving  an  innnediate 
successor.  Thus  a  Sunday-school  was  organized  under  the  direction  of  Bishop  Asbury,  at 
the  house  of  Mr.  Thomas  Crenshaw,  in  Hanover  County.  Mrginia,  in  1786,  yet  but  little 
is  known  of  ii  save  its  beginning.  A  minute  in  favor  of  organizing  Sunday-schools  was 
adoi)ted  by  the  Methodist  Conference  in  Charleston,  S.'C.,  in  February,  170C),  yet  no  record 
is  found  of  Sunday-schools  organized  in  consequence  of  this  minute.  In  December, 
IT'.Xi.  a  meeting  was  called  in  Philadelphia  to  consider  the  importance  of  this  work,  and 
early  in  January,  IT'Jl,  the  First-day  or  Sunday-school  Society  was  formed,  for  the  pur- 
pnsc  of  seciu'ing  religious  instruction  to  poor  children  on  Sunday.  This  society  has  con- 
tinued in  operation  to  the  present  day,  yet  its  schools,  like  those  of  Robert  Raikes,  had 
])aid  teachers  during  the  earlier  years  of  its  operation..  In  1701  a  Sunday-school  was 
started  in  Boston:  in  1793,  one  was  started  in  New  York  City,  by  Katy  Ferguson,  a 
colored  woman;  in  17!>4  one  was  started  in  Paterson,  X.  .7.;  in  1797  Sanmel  Slater 
secured  the  organization  of  one  in  Pawtucket,  R.  I. ;  in  IStiO  one  was  started  in  Pittsburg,  Pa. 
"In  1803  a  Sunday-school  was  gathered  by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Divie  Bethune,  in  New 
York  City,  and  subseipiently  other  schools  were  begun  by  them.  Mrs.  Bethune  was  a 
daughter  of  Mrs.  Isabella  Graham.  Mr.  Bethune  had  seen  something  of  Raikes"  work 
in  England,  an.d  the  New  York  school  was  started  in  inntation  of  that.  In  the  same  year 
witli  this  beginning  in  New  York,  a  Sunday-school  was  begun  in  INn-tsuKuith.  N.  II., 
the  year  following  one  was  started  in  Baltimore,  ]Md.  In  1809  a  systematic  Sunday- 
school  movement  was  organized  in  Pittsburg.  Pa. 

"In  1810,  Miss  Hannah  Hill  and  Miss  .Joanna  B.  I'rince.  of  Beverly.  Mass..  gathered 
a  company  of  about  thirty  neglected  children  who  were  accustomed  to  i»lay  about  the 
wharves  of  Beverly  on  the  Sabbath  day,  and  taught  them  from  the  Bible.  This  grew 
/ater  into  a  school  for  children  of  all  families. 

"The  Rev.  Robert  May,  from  London,  gave  a  new  start  to  Sunday-schools  in  Phila- 
delphia, 1811,  which  proved  a  beginning  of  permanent  success.  A  local  union  for  Sun- 
day-school work  was  oi-ganized  in  New  York  in  181 G.  another  in  Boston  the  same  year, 
and  another  in  Philadelphia  in  1817.  These  societies  became  the  nucleus  of  the  American 
Sunday-school  LTnion.  a   national   society,  formed  in,  1824." 

This  society  has  organized  more  than  100,000  Sunday-schools,  an  average  of  three 
and  one-half  every  day  for  eighty-five  years,  with  600,000  teachers  and  about  4.000,000 
scholars.  During  the  past  ten  years  more  than  1,100  churches  have  resulted  from  its 
schools. 

At  one  of  the  anniversaries  of  this  organization  a  conference  of  Sunday-school 
workers  was  held  which  resulted  in  the  organization  of  a  National  Sunday-school  Con- 
vention, and  the  first  meeting  of  that  body  was  held  in  New  Y''ork,  in  Chatham  Street

A  word  fiom  the  Editor  of  our  Sunday-school  Literature 

Four  grades  can  now  be  had  from  the  Christian  Publishing  Association.  It  is 
hoped  that  our  schools  will  be  liberal  in  their  patronage  and  thus  justify  the  House's 
course  in  preparing  the  new  series.  S.    Q.   HELFENSTEIN.

Education — Denominational  Achievements 

BY  REV.   M.   W.   BAKER, 
Educational  Secretar-y  American  Christian  Convention. 
Worthy  is  the  educational  record  which  the  passing  of  the  year  renders  unalterable 
Reason  there  is  for  rejoicing  in  both  the  general  and  the  denominational  achievements' 
yet  better  it  might  have  been  with  more  hearty  support  of  the  earnest  leaders  and  wise 
plans.     What  leaders  and  what  plans  these  are  is  just  now  a  subject  of  extensive  and 
intensive  discussion.     This  debate  has  by  its  vigor  testified  to  the  unprecedented  public 
concern  in  education.    Little  of  importance  has  escaped  examination.    The  system  of  edu- 
cation, the  curricula,  the  efficiency  of  methods,  the  liberty  of  the  Investio-ator  both  ' 
search  and  the  declaration  of  results,  the  educators  themselves  individually  and  profes- 
sionally,  and  each  of  the  great  schools— all  have  been  subjects  of  much  comment  and 
some  adverse  criticism.     Some  of  what  has  been  published,  especially  by  the  less  reliable 
or  "popular"  magazines,  has  evidently  been  for  "journalistic"  purposes,  or  in  other  words 


L'4  .  T  H  E     C  H  R  I  S  T  I  A  N     A  N  N  U  A  L 

that  atteutiuii  iniglit  be  drawn  to  themselves.  ]>ut  withuut  seiisatioualism,  some  of  the 
more  reliable  .iouriials  have  through  the  year  carried  worthy  and  instructive  series.  On 
the  whole  it  requirt's  conraj^e  and  faith  to  take  prominent  place  in  the  educational  world, 
for  whether  one  adhere  to  former  practices  or  introduce  innovations,  he  may  count  con- 
fidently on  antipathy  from  the  opposite  extreme  of  the  learned  ranks. 

Denominationally,  education  has  not  been  without  its  problems,  general  and  local, 
but,  on  the  whole,  reports  show  detinite  and  decided  progress.  The  new  activity  and 
equipment  which  followed  re -organization  at  Starkey  some  ten  years  ago,  at  Defiance  a 
few  years  later,  at  Merom.  three  years  ago.  and  at  Christian  Biblical  Institute  a  year 
hiter.  has  followed  this  year  *at  Kansas  Christian  College,  and  at  Tokyo  Theological 
School.  I'almer  has  also,  but  more  gradually,  adjusted  to  new  conditions  and  is  growing 
healthfully  and  hoi),'fully.  Klon  continues  steadily  on  her  well-laid  plans  for  solid  con- 
struction, with  the  organized  and  united  support  of  our  forces  South,  molding  there  the 
character  of  men  and  institutions.  The  McMaster  colony  is  enthusiastic  and  fulfilling 
the  hope  of  its  organizers.  Franklinton  looks  toward  the  cultivation  of  all  the  school  farm 
not  in  timber,  and  to  the'  construction  of  new  buildings  upon  the  land.  Weaubleau  con- 
tinues in  her  work  of  training  teachers  and  so  intiuencing  strongly  the  immediate  locality. 

The  remarkable  addition  of  five  schools  to  tlic  list  of  our  institutions  evinces  un- 
precedented orgauizing  activity.  Of  these  new  members  of  our  school  family,  two,  Jireh 
College  and  Oak  Grove  Academy,  bojie  to  be  on  tbeir  feet  before  spring.  Tokyo  Theolog- 
ical School  was  reorganized  in  .January.  r.lCl).  Holland  Institute  began  work  in  1908,  and 
the  Japanese  Girls'  School  in  1907.  Of  these  Jireh,  more  than  the  others,  owes  its  exist- 
ence to  encouragement  fntm  the  I)ei)artment  of  Education,  thoiigh  no  funds  have  yet  been 
appropriated  for  that  enterpi'ise.  Both  it  and  Oak  Grove  Academy  are  working  on  build- 
ings and  endowment. 

The  increasing  deman<l  of  onr  iicnjilc  for  education,  .-md  of  our  churches  for  trained 
men,  lies  back  of  this  growth  in  educaticmal  institutions.  Every  one  of  the  new  schools 
has  a  field  and  meets  a  need.  We  are  encouiaged  to  hojie  that  through  them  greater 
things  will  be  undertaken  and  attained.  The  degree  to  which  this  hope  can  be  realized 
will  depend  considerably  upon  the  whole-hearted  co-operation  of  all  the  churches  in  all 
the  conferences.

THE     ClIhMSTIAN     ANNUAL  25 

The  Importance  of  Our  Publications 

BY  HON.  O.   W.   WHITKLOCK, 

Prcs-^idciit  ChrhtUin  I'lihlixlihu/  Association. 

I'oliticiau.s  and  political  parlies  know  the  valne  of  the  ne\vs])aiier.  and  those  pnh- 
licalions  which  get  their  principles  hefure  the  people.  Hence,  the  unportance  of 
having  great  metropolitan  papers,  like  the  ^'cw  York  World,  A'c/r  York  Tribune, 
Chicago  Uccord-Hcrahl,  Chicago  Tribune,  Indianapolis  News,  Indiunaitolis  Star,  etc., 
as  expounders  of  the  political  gospels. 

Klias  Smith  had  a  vision  of  the  importance  of  getting  the  principles  of  religious 
liberty  befoie  the  world.  Others  have  had  similar  visions.  These  words  of  Elias 
Smith  aiipeared  in  the  Herald  of  Gospel  Libertij  when  it  was  edited  by  him, — ^"Relig- 
ious  liherty  is  what  my  heart  rejoices  in,  and  what  I  long  for  all  men  to  enjoy.  I 
am  hound  as  a  lover  of  manliind  to  instruct  them,  and  teach  them  the  nature  of  it, 
according  to  my  ability,  and  the  opportunity  given  me  to  do  it.  This  is  the  glorious 
liherty  of  the  children  of  God — begun  heie.  to  be  completed  at  the  resurrection  of  the 
just.  This  is  the  liherty  which  the  Son  of  God  proclaimed  to  captives — founded  on 
the  perfect  law  of  liberty  wherewith  (bri^t  malces  free  indeed.  This  liberty  was  first 
preached  by  Jesus  Christ,  next  by  His  apostles  who  learned  of  Him,  and  was  known 
and  enjoyed  by   the  Christians,   in   the  day   of   the  apostles." 

His  message  was  Religious  Liberty.  It  was  a  consuming  fire  within  him;  it  was 
born  of  (Jod,  and  like  Paul,  he  wanted  the  world  to  know  his  message.  He  saw  that 
the  message  was  too  imi)ortaut  to  be  limited  to  tlie  lips  of  one  man,  so  he  established 
the  first  religious  newspaper  that  tiis  cherished  principles  of  religious  liberty,  nught 
have  a  more  extended  hearing  than  would  have  been  possible  by  the  word  of  mouth. 
Smith  saw  the  importance  of  his  newspaper  as  a  transmitter  of  religious  news,  as 
well  as  a  vehicle  to  carry  abroad  liis  religious  principles.  After  a  hundred  years  of 
religious  journalism,  everybody  who  has  given  the  matter  any  serious  consideration 
knows  how  absolutely  important  is  the  churcli  paper.  One  would  suppose  that  in  this 
day  of  papers,  magazines  and  periodicals,  each  one  who  is  at  all  interested  in  the 
success  of  any  certain  church,  and  the  acceptance  of  the  church  principles  by  a  con- 
siderable number  of  people  would  be  glad  of  the  opportunity  to  circulate  the  paper  that 
stands  for  the  principles  he  claims  to  love,  and  wotild  almost  "fall  over  each  other" 
to  subscribe  for  such  a  paper.  But  unfortunately,  it  is  not  the  case.  But  on  the  con- 
trary, men  who  claim  to  love  certain  principles  must  be  coaxed  and  solicited,  and  in 
many  instances,  nmst  he  given  a  premium,  before  they  wUl  subscribe  for  their  own 
church    paper. 

Our  pioneer  preachers  and  the  early  fathers  of  the  Christians  had  a  better  vision 
of  the  importance  of  a  paper  that  stood  for  principles  than  many  of  us  have  to-day. 

The  difTicnlties  in  the  way  of  establishing  a  church  publication  in  the  early  day 
\A-ere  very  great.  The  people  were  poor  and  the  mail  facilities  very  limited  and 
crude  compared  with  the  service  we  have  to-day.  But  as  the  difficulties  were  great, 
the  zeal,  enthusiasm,  and  religious  patriotism  were  also  great  in  proportion  to  the 
necessities.  We  find  our  church  forefathers,  not  only  in  New  England,  but  in  New 
York  and  in  the  West,  planning  and  working  with  all  their  energy  to  establish  news- 
papers and  journals  that  the  principles  they  loved  so  well  might  be  gotten'  before  the 
people  and  to  the  public  ear.     We  had  many  papers  in  different  sections  of  the  country.

Newinnrket,  Canada.     Prof.  J.  N.  Dales,  editor,  Toronto,  Canada. 

The  history  of  the  struggles  of  our  forefathers"  to  establish  and  publish  these 
papers  would  make  a  very  large  book  if  written  out  in  detail.  The  anxiety,  heart- 
aches, and  sacrifices  that  they  endured,  that  the  principles  they  loved  and  cherished 
might  be  placed  before  the  world,  should  make  the  blush  of  shame  come  to  our  cheek, 
when  we  complain  of  poverty  and  liardships  in  these  days  of  plenty  and  advantages. 
Their  untiring  efforts,  and  deep  devotion  to  principles  and  the  cause  near  their  hearts, 
made  success,  in  a  large  measure,  come  to  them.  Their  principles  were  heaven  born, 
were  of  Christ,  and  they  tooli  root  in  many  a  heart.  The  seed  sown  brought  forth 
fruit.  Religious  Liberty  and  personal  thought  and  interpretation  found  lodgment  in 
the  minds  and  hearts  of  many  people. 

These  principles  that  were  advocated  by  these  religious  patriots  and  pioneers  of  the 
Christian  Church  are  to-day  accepted  in  a  large  degree  by  the  leading  men  in  all 
Protestant  churches,  as  was  witnessed  in  the  Great  Church  Congress  in  Philadelphia, 
held  recently. 

These  principles  are  to-day  taking  the  religious  world.  We  can  hardly  measure 
the  importance  of  our  publications  to  the  world  to-day.  They  are  absolutely  neces- 
sary to  be  maintained  and  circulated  for  the  perpetuation  of  the  Christian  Church  as 
an  organization.  It  is  the  Pioneer  Church  of  Religious  Freedom,  and  should  not  per- 
ish. Our  principles  will  live,  for  they  are  founded  on  the  solid  Rock,  Christ  .Jesus. 
They  will  prevail  over  all  opposition,  even  thovigh  our  Church,  as  an  organized  effort, 
passes  into  oblivion.  But  our  church  should  never  be  numbered  with  the  organizations 
of  the  dead  past,  until  after  the  Millenium  shall  appear ;  and  will  not,  if  we  of  to-day 
are  faithful  to  the  trust  reposed  in  us,  and  if  the  generations  to  come  will  have  the 
backbone  of  our  fathers.  We  must  not  be  recreant,  we  must  stand  by  our  publica- 
tions, for  they  are  the  heralds  of  our  principles  and  we  cannot  succeed  without  them. 
The  Herald  of  Gospel  Lihcrty  is  the  chief  exponent  of  the  doctrines  of  our  church  : 

1.  Christ,  the  Head  of  the  Church. 

2.  Christian  Character  our  only  test  of  Church   Fellowship. 

3.  The  Bible  our  only  rule  of  faith  and  practice. 

4.  Individual  interpretation  of  the  Scriptures  the  right  and  privilege  of  all. 

5.  The  spiritual  union  of  all  of  the  followers  of  Christ. 
G.     Chi'istian  our  only  name. 

As  great  helpers  in  the  spread  of  these  principles,  the  Christian  Sun,  of  the 
Southland,  and  the  Christian  Vanguard,  of  Canada,  must  not  be  overlooked.  As  great 
auxiliaries,  we  have  the  Christian  Missionary,  the  Sunday-School  Herald,  the  Junior 
Herald,  the  liihle  Class  Qimrterly,  the  Intermediate  Quarterly,  the  Junior  Quarterly 
and  the  Primary  Quarterly. 

These  publications,  together  with  our  books,  such  as  the  "Centennial  of  Religious 
Journalism,"  "Kinkade's  Bible  Doctrine,"  "Scripture  Doctrine,"  "Modern  Light  Bear- 
ers," "Autobiography  of  Abraham  Snethen,"  and  many  more,  which,  if  circulated 
and  read,  will  leaven  the  world  to  a  degree  in  the  next  century,  that  we  can  now  but 
dimly  foreshadow. 

It  has  been  well  said,  "Show  me  what  a  man  reads,  and  I  will  show  you  what 
he  is."  The  importance  of  our  publications  in  the  home,  in  the  Sunday-school,  and 
in  the  Church   cannot  be  measured.

28  THE     CHRIkSTIAN     ANNUAL 

A   "Get  Together"   Year 

BY  REV.  J.  PRESSLEY  BARRETT,   D.  D., 

Editor  Herald  of  Gospel  Lihertt/. 

We  are  already  in  the  year  of  our  uext  "Qiiadreiiniar"  gatherhii?!  Many  voices  are 
calling  to  ns,  some  for  one  thing  and  some  for  another.  I'he  most  iirgent  is  the  voice 
which  is  appealing  to  us  as  a  people  "to  get  together"  for  la*rger  frnitfulness  in  the 
service  of  God.  We  have  our  differences,  hut  above  them  all  we  may  hear  tlie  call  to 
"get   together." 

To  be  selfish,  to  seelv  our  own,  tliat  is  a  temptation  to  many  of  us.  but  as  the 
childi-en  of  God  we  are  under  the  most  sacred  obligation  to  forego  the  gratification  of 
any  such  wish,  and  to  see  to  it.  at  wliatever  cost,  that  in  this  year  of  our  "quadrennial" 
gathering  we  "get  together"  and  render  the  best  service  we  have  given  in  our  day. 

The  history  of  a  century  is  looking  down  upon  us,  and  calling  us,  as  by  the  hal- 
lowed associations,  the  sacrifices  and  sufferings  of  our  forefathers,  to  forget  the  things 
which  divide  us  and  to  come  togetlier  in  the  name  of  the  Lord  for  the  best  year's  work 
in  our  history.  The  call  comes  as  from  the  battlements  of  Heaven — it  is  mighty,  and 
grows  louder  as  the  days  and  weeks  come  and  go.  Our  Leader  is  giving  the  Church 
a  conunand.  It  is :  "Go  i/e  into  all  the  world  and  preach  the  Gospel  to  every  creature," 
He  seeks  in  the  giving  of  this  command,  not  only  the  good  of  the  heathen  world,  but  the 
rejuvenation  of  the  church  itself.  He  seeks  a  church  which  is  without  spot,  or  wrinkle, 
or  blemish. 

Our  petty  differences  and  misunderstandings  are  as  chaff  in  the  wheat — we  need  to 
forget  ourselves  that  we  may  heed  this  call  to  "get  together,"  and  make  the  year  1910 
the  best  in  all  our  history.  In  doing  such  a  marked  service  we  shall  do  four  things: 
We  shall  more  honor  our  Lord,  we  shall  show  a  larger  appreciation  of  the  labors  and 
sacrifices  of  onr  fatliers  and  our  brethren  who  have  gone  before,  we  slmll  tlie  more  liless 
the  world  and  the  more  surely  do  our  part  in  building  iip  the  church,  so  making  it 
I'eady  for  His  coming  as  the  Bridegroom,  and  if  anything  were  yet  lacking  as  an  incentive, 
we  have  but  to  think  of  the  great  company  of  witnesses  who  are  watching  the  con- 
flict, in  which  we  are  engaged,  with  intense  interest,  watching  for  the  least  sign  of 
coming  victory. 

Let  us  "get  together"  for  personal  consecration,  and  for  the  best  yeir"s  work  in 
winTiing  souls  for  Christ,  in  building  up  the  Church,  and  in  giving  the  (icspel  to  the 
lands  of  heathen  darkness.  In  such  a  consunnnation  no  doubt  the  a'ngels  ;mi,\  the  great 
cloud  of  witnesses  above  would  make  Heaven  ring  with  praise  till  the  earth  should 
hear  and  be  joyful ! 

In  the  best  days  of  Greece  her  greatest  battlefield  was  Marat Ikmi.  It  was  her 
greatest  militai'y  glory,  but  it  well  nigh  cost  the  life  of  her  peo])le.  as  a  nation,  so 
fierce  was  the  conflict.  Ever  after  that  feai'ful  battle,  if  Greece  had  internal  dissensions, 
it  was  enough,  if  in  the  midst  of  dispute  and  division,  some  one  would  cry  out:  "Mara- 
tlioii  1"  It  was  as  a  signal  for  the  cessation  of  all  bickerings,  and  the  summons  to  "get 
together"  foi-  imiiiediate  action  in  service  for  Greece,  and  from  that  moment  they 
stood  as  one  body,  "together"  for  Greece!  Brethren,  shall  the  subjects  of  an  earthly 
kingdom  excel  the  members  of  the  church  militant  in  their  service  for  God  and  man? 
The  very  thought  is  a  shame  to  the  holy  name  we  wear! 

Brethren  of  the  Christian  Church,  whatever  may  be  our  differences,  personally,  or 
otherwise,  let  us  listen  to  the  voice  of  .Tesus  as  He  calls  to  us  after  the  manner  of  the 
(Grecians  to  remember  Calvary!  Under  His  call  may  the  Holy  Spirit  move  us  to  "get 
together"  and  move  as  one  man  in  doing  the  work  which  God  has  given  us  to  do  in 


THE     CHRISTIAN     ANNUAL  29 

winning  tlie  world  to  Clirist  and  in  bnilding  up  the  Cliurcli  among  men.  Let  us  Iceep 
in  mind,  dear  brethren,  the  insignificance  of  our  "lilies"  and  "dislikes"  as  compared 
with  the  importanceof  this  work,  for  when  we  all  shall  have  passed  on  to  the  heavenly  life, 
we  shall  see  more  fully  the  tremendous  responsibility  that  now  rests  upon  us  and  the 
injury  we  have  doue  to  the  cause  of  Christ  on  eartli  by  contending  f<)r  that  which 
divided  us   as  a   people. 

I  well  rememlter  how  jealousy  in  my  childhood  days  n)ade  me  very  unhappy.  My 
older  brother  liked  to  be  first  in  the  privileges  and  honors  of  the  home  and  on  the 
farm,  but  I  felt  that  I  ought  at  least  to  rank  as  his  equal  in  everything.  Father  often 
corrected  us  both  for  the  ugly  disposition  vce  indulged.  At  times  the  feeling  l)etween 
ns  was  inten.se,  destroying  not   only  our  happiness,   but  largely   our  usefulness  as  well. 

Time  passed  rapidly.  Then  father  was  called  away.  Brother  and  I  were  separated. 
He  had  become  a  man.  and  I  went  away  to  school.  Then  love  began  to  assert  itself  and 
to  bear  fruit  in  our  lives  as  brothers.  Through  this  newly  kindled  love  we  bef:an  to  see 
how  little  we  had  been  toward  one  another,  how  we  had  grieved  father-  and  mother, 
and  injured  ourselves.  Now  iu  a  fuller  light  of  manhood  I  look  back  upon  those  days 
with  deep  regret.  I  see  the  harm  of  the  way  we  felt  and  acted  toward  each  other, 
and  then  we  burdened  father  and  mother  with  our  folly.  Now  my  i>rayer  is:  (!(j(1  for- 
(/irc  this  Holiness  and  wipe  it  all  out  for  Jesus'  sake.  You  may  say:  "Oli.  well,  that 
was  only  the  folly  of  childhood  I"  And  it  is  true,  but  it  was  iiidceil  far  from  what  was 
right  and  good!     How  little  in  s])irit  and  piupose  I  was.  and  yet   did  not  then  realize  it. 

This  is  a  picture  of  what  sometimes  goes  on  in  the  Church.  Our  unseendy  differ- 
ences through  us  war  against  the  cause  of  Chrisl.  Oh.  beloved,  we  are  living  in  a  ureat 
day,  snrromided  by  many  golden  opportunities  for  service  in  the  Lord's  work  1  r>et  us 
lay  aside  every  one  of  these  weights  which  so  easily  beset  us  and  destroy  our  usefulness 
,is  Christians,  and  let  us  run  the  race  before  us  with  patience  and  courage  and  faith- 
fulness to  Him  who  has  called  us.  Let  us  forget  our  differences  and  reaching  out  after 
the  prize  of  the  high  calling  of  (Jod  in  Christ,  let  us  "get  together"  and  make  the  work 
of  the  year  1910  the  best  in  our  history  as  a  people.  Let  ns  reach  (uit  after  the  gifts  of 
the  Spirit  and  press  onward  and  ujiward  to  glory  and  to  (Jod.  Such  a  yeir  of  getting 
t(igether  and  such  a  service  for  our  King  will  give  us  a  day  of  rejoicing  in   Heaven. 

Let  us  forgive  and  forget  whatever  has  hindered  our  usefulness  hi  the  past,  and  in 
doing  so.  let  us  get  together  for  the  work  of  1010,  and  upon  oui'  knees  let  us  promise 
Ctf)d  that  by  His  grace  we  will  not  knowingly  allow  our  differences  and  dislil<es  to  stand 
in  the  way  of  the  best  service  He  can  command  in  us — that  we  will  not  stand  in  the 
way  of  the  sjireiul  of  the  truth,  or  hinder  the  building  u]i  of  the  Church  of  Christ  among

The  Aged  Ministers'  Home 

BY  KEV.  ,7.  W.   WILSON. 

TIu'  Home  was  iiicoriinraicd  in  1S!)4  and  located  at  Castile,  N.  Y.,  but  has  recently 
been  r'liioA'ed  to  Lakeiuoiit.  N.  V.  Tlie  previous  location  was  fixed  upon  because  it  was 
the  home  of  Mi's.  L.  L.  Sellon,  who  was  the  movins  spirit  in  the  foundation  of  the  Home 
and  because  snitable  availabl<'  pro|»orty  could  lie  had  at   a  l»ar;jcain. 

Through  the  generosity  of  several  fri.nds,  the  tirsi  cost  of  the  Home,  amounting  to 
$1..",<10.00,  was  met.  and  later  through  the  kindness  of  tlie  late  F.  A.  Palmer,  of  New  Y'ork 
I'ity.  the  Home  was  enlarged  and  a  sum  of  tea  thousand  dollars  was  given  as  a  partial 
endowment.  This  sum  should  be  doubled  at 'an  early  day  by  thos!'  who  are  able  to  do  so. 
And  any  amount  towards  it  will  be  cheerfully  received,  and  .-icknowledged,  as  has  been 
done  heretofore  in  the  case  of  many   who  have  contributed  to   its  support. 

Considerable  repairs  have  been  ntade  on  the  new  ]iurchase,  and  a  c(nnmodious  home 
w.'ll  furnished,  i)leasanfly  situated,  in  close  and  easy  walking  distance  to  the  Christian 
Temple  at  Lakemont.  is  now  ready  for  the  worthy  needy  ones  from  the  East  and  the 
South.  North,  and  West.  There  are  four  acres  of  ground  for  shade  and  Howers.  for 
garden  and  fruit,  with  an   aliundance  of  fruit  trees,  berri;'S  and  gra])es. 

The  Christian  Churcli'at  large  should  interest  thensselves  in  this  Eden  of  comfort  and

Historical  Sketch   of   East   Hounsfield   Christian 
Church  and  Parsonage 

BY  FLORA  CLEVELAND 

The  Christian  church  of  East  Hounsfield  is  located  four  miles  from  Watertown, 
N.  Y.  The  society  was  organized  January  11.  1S17,  by  Elder  Lebbens  Field,  who  died 
in  1870.  Jit  the  age  of  OD  years  and  S  months.  He  lived  to  see  much  good  accomplished 
in  his  home  neighborhood. 

Services  were  held  for  many  years  in  the  sdioolhouse,  but  finally  the  i)resent  church 
building  was  ti'ected  and  dedicated  to  the  worshij)  of  God  on  December  31,  1842.  The 
dedication  seinion  was  delivered  by  Elder  Ira  Allen  of  Potsdam. 

Can  we  not  imagine  the  feeling  of  gratitude,  of  joy  and  satisfaction  it  nuist  have 
been  to  that  little  band  of  church  workers  and  their  h('l])ers  to  have  this  place  of 
public  worship? 

Elders  Lebbens  Field.  Lyman  Perry.  Chas.  Ayers  and  Kingsley  served  as  i)astors. 
Then  followed  a  period  of  sixteen  years,  during  which  time  Sunday-school  was  main- 
tained and  occasional  preaching.  In  1870  the  church  sheds  were  built  and  in  1875  eleven 
church  members  had  the  courage  to  call  a  pastor  and  with  the  aid  of  the  people  of  the 
conmiunity  and  those  who  united  with   the  church   continued  to  keep  a  resident  pastor

here   till  1893 — sixteen  years.     During  this  period  we  had  the  f()lli>wing  pastors:   Kevs. 
James  E.   Hayes.   H.   W.   Pierre,   Geo.   E.   Merrill   and  B.   S.   Fanton. 

In  3S80  the  huilding  ^vas  repaired  and  repainted,  also  remodeled  inside.  It  was  re- 
dedicated  in  August,  1880,  Kev.  L.  Coffin  of  Newark,  Wayne  County.  N.  Y.,  preaching 
the  sermon.  Kevs.  (4.  S.  Warren,  George  It.  Torrey  and  the  new  i)astor.  Rev.  H.  AV. 
Pierce,  were  also  present. 

In  1881  the  church  was  incorporated  under  the  laws  of  the  .State  of  New  York,  as 
The  Christian  Church  of  East  Hounsfield. 

The  shade  trees  were  planted  in  1880  and  named  in  honor  of  former  pastors. 

In  1801  we  had  a  memhership  of  fifty-five.  Then  followed  a  period  of  fourteen  years 
in   which    Sunday-school   was  maintainetl   most   of  the   time   and  preaching  at   intervals.

and  old  friends,  all  united  in  helping  to  raise  the  necessary  funds.  The  pastor 
compiled  and  printed  a  historical  booklet  of  the  church,  whi<-h  has  already  netted 
a  neat  little  sum  for  the  benefit  of  the  parsonage.

The  New  York  Northern  Christian  Conference,  in  which  this  church  was  located,

In  Scotland  they  call  the  little  children  "bairiiies."  An  old  woman  was  noticed  bend-

"Oh,  let  them  be!  What  harm  will  they  do?"  But  she  answered,  "Oh,  they  might  hurt 
the  bairnies'  feet."  So  she  bent  her  poor  old  back  to  kee])  their  feet  from  aching.  How- 
many  of  us  are  willing  to  do  something  that  seems  hard  that  we  may  help  other-s? —

divine  platform,  its  divine  chart  and  compass.  I  love  its  Divine  Head  and  Leader.  Ihis  is  «/(//  i

The  home  mission  work  of  this  convention,  as 
shown  by  the  report  of  the  president  of  the  Chris- 
tian ?.Iissionary  Association  at  the  last  meeting 
of  the  Southern  Convention,  is  in  successful  oper- 
ation. The  Convention  has  recommentled  the 
localizing  of  this  association,  and  the  organiza- 
tion of  conference  associations  on  the  same  gen- 
eral plan.  The  Association,  in  addition  to  aiding 
special  points,  maintains  two  general  mission- 
aries in  its  bounds.  In  accordance  with  the  Con- 
vention recommendations,  all  the  conferences  have 
organized  local  Conference  Missionary  Associa- 
tions. These  associations  have  been  officered  in 
the  manner  of  the  Convention  Association.  By 
the  plans  thus  inaugurated  the  funds  for  home 
missions  will  be  greatly  increased.  As  regards 
foreign  missions,  there  is  a  steady  growth  of  in- 
terest. A  special  call  was  made  upon  the  con- 
ference for  missions  at  the  late  session  of  the 
( "(invention. 

The  report  of  the  Committee  on  Schools  and 
Colleges,  made  at  Greensboro,  N.  C,  shows  Elon 
College  to  be  highly  successful  and  the  endow- 
r  I  Mu-rease;!  to  .t;30.0()().  That  the  churches 
composing  the  Convention  pay  a  fixed  sum  an- 
nnally  of  $1,S00  for  Elon  College.  Thus  the  col- 
lege is  freed  from  embarrassment  as  to  its  future 
progress.  In  1904,  it  was  decided  to  build  a  new 
dormitory    to    cost    about    $20,000,    with    modern

equipments.  This  building  is  now  completed  at  a 
cost  of  about  $40,000.  It  contains  music  rooms 
and  art  studio,  in  addition  to  accommodations  for 
about  one  hundred  young  ladies.  Prof.  E.  L. 
Moffltt,  Elon  College,  N.  C,  is  president  of  the 
college,  and  its  financial  affairs  are  entrusted  to 
him.  The  president  is  now  conducting  a  cam- 
paign raising  an  endowment  of  $50,000.  Already 
ten  men  have  given  $1,000  each,  and  quite  a 
number  have  given   $500  each. 

The  Orphanage,  projected  by  the  Convention,  is 
now  opened,  and  is  under  the  management  of 
Rev.  J.  L.  Foster,  superintendent.  Elon  College, 
N.    C.     He   is  also   the  authorized   financial  agent. 

The  Christian  Sun,  purchased  by  the  Southern 
Convention,  is  edited  by  Rev.  J.  O.  Atkinson.

STARKEY    SEMINARY     j 

LAKEMONT,  NEW  YORK 


iIRST-class  boarding  school  for  young  people 
of  both   sexes,   from  thirteen   years  old   and 

•  upward.  The  situation  of  the  school  is  un- 
rivaled, planted  on  the  verge  of  the  plateau 
overlooking  S'eneca  Lake,  and  in  full  view 
of  Watkins,  the  site  of  the  famous  Watkins 
Glen. 

Owing  to  the  generosity  of  the  late  Hon. 
Francis  A.  Palmer,  of  New  York,  the  school 
has  possession  of  a  magnificent  new  build- 
ing, equipped  with  modern  appliances  for 
convenience  and  comfort.  Ten  teachers,  spe- 
cialists in  their  several  departments  com- 
rose  the  Board  of  Insti-uction,  and  the  stu- 
dents are  prepared  for  any  college,  trained 
for  business  or  take  finishing  courses  in  art, 
elocution  and  vocal  and  instrumental  music. 
The  health  record  of  the  school  is  above  the 
average,  and  the  distance  from  all  demoral- 
izing influence  tends  to  i)romote  moral  and 
intellectual  health.  Special  watchcare  is 
taken  of  the  girls,  who  are  under  the  super- 
vision of  five  lady  teachers.  Terms  are  very 
moderate,  while  the  table  is  kept  up  to  the' 
standard  of  schools  that  charge  twice  or 
thrice  the  Starkey  i  ate. 

For  catalogue  or  information  address  the

"\VON    BY  ONE" 

The  Call  to  Personal  Evangelism^ 
BY  REV.  M.  T.  LAMB 

A  striking  and  altogether  unusaal  little 
book  on  wide-awake  and  progreasive  evangel- 
ism whose  central  thought  Is  "Preach  the 
Gospel  to  Every  Creature."  It  has  won  sig- 
nal success  under  the  title  "Every  Creature," 
but  we  have  named  it  more  signlflcautly, 
"Won  by  One,"  for  It  convincingly  lays  upon 
every  Christian  preacher  or  layman,  the  ob- 
lip:ation  of  personal  individual  work  In  car- 
rying out  Christ's  great  commission.  It  is 
a  book  to  be  bought  by  dozens  and  hundreds 
for  distribution. 

If  your  church  Is  at  a  standstill  spiritual- 
ly, get  your  people  to  read  this  book.  The 
result  will  show  a  tremendous  return  on  the 
Investment.  Get  a  copy  for  yourself  at 
once. 

Price: — Art    Boards,    94   pages,   50  cents, 
postpaid.        Send  orders  to

I    Why  You  Should  take  the  Herald  of  Gospel  Liberty 

f  BE  CAUSE   it  furnishes  needed  information  in  a  thoroughly  interesting 

.  and  up-to-date  manner. 

5  BECAUSE    it   interprets   movements   within   the   Christian   Church   in   a 

2  Christian  spirit  in  relation  to  other  churches  throughout  the  world.
